Benzodiazepine Detox Program

Detox safely under medical supervision

Benzodiazepine withdrawal can be severe and should never be experienced without medical supervision. Innovo Detox provides a comfortable and private environment in which patients can safely detox from benzodiazepine under the supervision of doctors, nurses, therapists, and recovery in a short-term (typically 7-to-14 day) stay.

Benzodiazepines (often referred to as “Benzos”) are a class of drugs primarily used for treating anxiety. Abuse of this class of drugs can lead to Benzodiazepines Addiction.

Beyond anxiety treatment, benzodiazepines may also be prescribed and used to treat seizures, convulsions, and insomnia. Benzodiazepines addiction reduce the activity of nerves in the brain and spinal cord by enhancing the effects of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric (GABA.)

Benzodiazepine withdrawal can be fatal, so seeking to detox from benzodiazepines should always be done under medical supervision.

Dangers of Benzodiazepines

The two serious concerns and dangers of benzodiazepines addiction are the potential for abuse and the development of physical dependence. These are of particular concern for individuals who are predisposed to addiction, suffer from a substance use disorder, or may engage in using benzodiazepines recreationally.

Benzodiazepines are also often mixed with other substances by those misusing these substances. There is a high risk of side effects of benzodiazepines, including confusion, slurred speech, seizures or convulsions, severe drowsiness or coma, slow heartbeat, shakiness, severe weakness and difficulty breathing.

Pharmaceutical names for benzodiazepines include:

  • Xanax
  • Valium
  • Lorazepam (Ativan)
  • Klonopin
  • Halcion
  • Restoril
  • Librium
